Do they charge a yearly fee or a one off fee?

just tested it, even I can notice the latency and it sucks the top end out resulting in lower volume than a cable, so all in all, bloody useless

When I checked, in the basket,the unit was still described as a Lekato WS-70 but the picture had changed to the Honiyo unit, I really can't be bothered to send it back for the sake of 8 quid, that's probably what they rely on, and it does work, haven't really tested out the quality yet, might be ok for home use

ordered a Lekato WS-70 wireless unit from AliExpress, under £16, what had I got to lose? I got to the checkout and the price was £8.30, I thought I'd got a new customer discount. The unit arrived today and its a HOHIYO A8, very flimsy but it works, but very dodgy practices, the original picture shows a Lekato but the check out picture (I've just checked) shows the Hohiyo, I shall complain but I'm not holding my breath

just had a email from Soundrop saying they were taking down one of our albums at my request, I never made such a request but the album been taken down already, funny how it happened after they put their prices up. I've emailed them about it but I'm not holding my breath

this is a problem and pubs change hands a lot, get a good crowd, management changes, don't like your style of music and don't book you, mind you that type of manager doesn't tend to last long, on the other hand we sometimes keep getting asked back when hardly anybody turns up, to the point where we make an excuse not to play there

just ordered a WS-70 off Aliexpress, for some reason the amount was down to £8.36 by the time I paid for it, I'm wondering what the catch is 😂

just had a email from Soundrop, they're increasing their charge from $0.99 a track to a whopping $4.99 a track, so if we ever get round to releasing any new music we'll looking round for a better deal than that. edit, or maybe not bother just release a physical product, might sell a few more then

we use soundrop, costs about £1 a track (or did last time we used it) and they put it on most if not all the streaming sites, get a statement every month giving details of how many streams and where the songs have been streamed, when the amount reaches $20 we get a payment, which takes an age, especially now spotify don't pay anything till a 1000 streams in a 12 month period is reached

this^ we have just had a request for I Wanna Be Sedated for one of our gigs, they don't come any simpler than that but it's a great song and good fun to play IMO. It's one those where you think why is this simple song so good, I remember a quote by Gary Moore when talking about great guitar riffs, "A great guitar riff is one that is so simple you think to yourself why didn't I think of that?"

yes you're probably right, I like listening to songs by artists where the bass is more prominent, Stranglers, Jam even the Beatles on some of their tracks, especially the remixed versions, even Status Quo up to but not including Rocking All Over the World, the bass drove the songs along instead of just adding low end

so he could have been saying "Where's my fcuking cake" 😂

seems to be the modern way, bass is there to add bottom end, nobody knows what a bass does until it's not there

unless you can tell a difference from hearing gig or recording does it matter? amused me that the Rod Stewart bassist used 3 basses at Glastonbury and you could hardly hear him, never mind tell any difference between them I used a different bass at one of our gigs, I said to my partner afterwards how it sounded, she replied "It sounded like a bass!" 😂

might have been fucccccccking SARRROOOOONNNNNNN, the cnuts have left me sitting here
